Nothing 2 Respect

Mikeniecesha Hicks 1983 (San Francisco)

Ballad
Bitch, hoe, ugly, stupid...
Those are the names you call the woman you love...
The woman you said you wanted to spend the rest of your life with...
You respect everyone but her...
She says nothing because she loves you.

Retarted, slow, special, dummy...
Those are the name you call the woman you say you love...
All she asks for is time and love...
She's told she's needy.

Bitch, hoe, ugly, stupid...
Those are the name you call the woman you love...
She corrects you but you don't care...
She accepts it out of fear of losing you...
She prays things get better but they don't.

She gives you her all...
You take and barely give back...
She makes sure your good...
You make sure your good.
But she's the woman you so call love.
